Birch Bark Revival
Birch bark. Knowledge transfer is the key term in the project. Birch bark should be harvested during a period of a few weeks around midsummer, when it produces sap. The project will dive into the material to explore new expressions and areas of application. Knowledge will be developed and disseminated through the birch bark networks that the project creates. The project is supported within the framework of HANDMADE.

Juxtaposing Craft / Color Kitchen

The project participants will explore together how the handmade can help us to understand our historical journey and where we are heading with today’s global transcultural stream of ideas and expressions. The project is supported by HANDMADE.
